Trying to download SPSS for MacOS and libjvm.dylib error

  • 1.  Trying to download SPSS for MacOS and libjvm.dylib error

    Posted Mon March 03, 2025 10:47 AM
    This is the image that I keep getting when I attempt to open the SPSS software. It will not allow me to move forward.
    I attempted multiple time and everyday for nearly a week to trouble shoot this SPSS software with my MacBook Pro Sequoia 15.3.1. I have looked on Youtube for any troubleshooting tips, deleted old Java and uploaded the new Java. 
    Despite all these attempts, I am still unsuccessful. I am hoping IBM community can help me. I am PhD student and I have an assigment due in a few days.

    Hi @DANILO LOVINARIA
    What version of IBM SPSS Statistics for macOS are you installing?  And from where are you downloading the installation media?

    I see you are on macOS 15.3.1 (Sequoia). IBM SPSS Statistics 29.0.2.0 (20) and later are compatible with macOS Sequoia.  The current version is IBM SPSS Statistics 30.0.0.0 (172).  If you are not installing 29.0.2.0 or 30.0.0.0, you are installing to an unsupported OS.

    Downloading IBM SPSS Statistics 29.0.2.0

    Downloading IBM SPSS Statistics 30
